The most popular bee hive in South India is:

  • A.Newton's bee hive
  • B.Nucleus hive
  • C.Jeolikote hive
  • D.Langstroth hive

Answer: A

Newton's bee hive is the most popular in South India. It was developed in the south to keep the Indian hive bee, Apis cerana indica, in a movable-frame hive.

The Langstroth hive is the standard for the European bee Apis mellifera, the Jeolikote hive is associated with Uttar Pradesh in the north, and a nucleus hive is a small hive used to start colonies, so none of them is the popular South Indian hive.

The Newton hive was designed for the Indian hive bee, Apis cerana, and is widely used in South India, where this bee is the main species kept. The Langstroth hive, by contrast, is the standard box for Apis mellifera.
